Review Quotes
A must for anyone considering a career in film music. Informative and entertaining, it contains nuts-and bolts as well as big-picture thinking.
As timely and useful a book on the subject as I've seen.
Exceptionally wide-ranging and insightful, Jeff Rona covers every aspect of the craft in a straightforward and highly readable style. While the book is marvelously detailed, it does not overwhelm but flows with a sense of calmness. I definitely recommend this as a reference for both those starting out or those experienced in the world of the scoring composer.
The Reel World is an invaluable resource for anyone interested in making film music. It's one of a kind.
The Reel World is simple and optimistic, designed to encourage and enlighten--never dogmatic. Jeff Rona's techniques and information champion newer composers so they too can bring their musical magic to our storytelling.
